Abstract/Résumé:
We take a bounded circle on a complex hyperbolic space. We show that if it has complex torsion either \(\pm 1\) or \(0\) then it is expressed by a geodesic on some geodesic sphere, and show that if it has complex torsion \(\tau\) with \(0 < |\tau| < 1\) then it is uniquely expressed by a non-geodesic trajectory on a geodesic sphere up to congruency.
Nous prenous un cercle borné en l’espace hyperbolique complexe. Nous montrons que il est exprimé par une géodésique sur une sphère géodésique si sa torsion complexe est \(0\) ou \(\pm 1\), et montrons que il est uniquement exprimé par une trajectoire sur une sphère géodésique qui n’est pas une géodésique si sa torsion complexe est \(0 < |\tau| < 1\).

Abstract/Résumé:
We characterize geodesic spheres with sufficiently small radii in a complex hyperbolic space by using their geometric properties. These geodesic spheres are the only examples of hypersurfaces of type (A) having nonnegative sectional curvature in this ambient space.
Nous caractérisons les sphères géodésiques de rayon suffisamment petit dans un espace hyperbolique complexe en utilisant leurs propriétés géométriques. Ces sphères géodésiques sont les seuls exemples d’hypersurfaces de type (A) qui ont courbure non-negative dans cet espace ambiant.

Abstract/Résumé:
Investigating geometric properties of characteristic vector fields on geodesic spheres in a complex space form, we characterize complex space forms in the class of Kähler manifolds.
